In this episode, we speak to Savannah Blake of https://earthandwater.co/ who helps us understand how to bring mindfulness into our everyday lives to better cope with the current situation. We look at two studies looking at the impact of COVID on mental health in different age groups and areas. Savannah teaches us some methods that might help everyone currently in lockdown.

We've been doing a lot of research into studies around the concept of time during COVID and language progression of terms.

In the first part of this episode we look at studies that indicate how people are feeling with the construct of time during lockdown.

In the second part of the episode we look at how language is used to convey messages and understanding during these times.

In this episode, we look at two studies exploring how lockdown has effected those with tendencies of an introverted personality vs an extroverted personality, and the results might surprise you.

Returning from episode 1 we have Joshua Longbrook of the Our Foundations podcast. This is a two part episode due to the length of the interview. In this second part we pick up after the conversation of the protest and look at the broader spectrum of general disobedience and how this will evolve over time. We look at examples we've already seen and how attitudes are shifting as time moves on.

Returning from episode 1 we have Joshua Longbrook of the Our Foundations podcast. This was an episode we planned to have in the schedule and we were going to focus on the social impacts of COVID and what it might lead to. However, with recent events in America surrounding George Floyd and BLM, we felt it was only right to discuss this matter but also look at it from a COVID standpoint.

This is a two part episode due to the length of the interview we want to make sure the messages of both parts are clear, please spread awareness, support and information. Also, please find below links to donate to some amazing causes.

In this episode, we first explore some good news surrounding the pandemic before diving into the world of productivity. There has been a lot of expectations placed on people for how they should be spending their "free time". We explore from our own perspectives what is needed, and also how this attitude really developed. Then we look at this anti-productivity movement and explore why this is just as damaging as the productivity guilt culture.

In this episode, we speak to Chiara, who lives in Italy, one of the hardest hit areas in Europe and Kal, who is living in New York, the first major epicenter in the US. We get their perspective of how their Governments have handled the crisis and how they have noticed a shift in the attitude of people around them.

Max and Ines also review Boris Johnson's recent announcement for how the UK can return to "normal" and the general confusion facing the country at the moment. 

In this episode, we first explore some good news surrounding the pandemic before diving into the world of media consumption. We look at our own media consumption and then look at each generation (Gen-Z, Millennials, Gen-X and Boomers) for how their media consumption has changed since COVID-19. We also explore how generations are feeling about about their habits in a post COVID world and whether these trends will continue.

In this episode, we first explore some good news surrounding the pandemic before diving into the world of conspiracy theories. We look at the three main theories that have come out of this pandemic:

1. Bill Gates
2. 5G
3. Wuhan Laboratory

We take each theory and look into its origins, the facts surrounding it and how likely it is to be true.
